Russia Between Yesterday and Tomorrow

Russians Speak Out on Politics, Religion, Sex, and America

Russia's transformation from a Communist society to a free-market system is exposed through the eyes of ordinary Russians--young, old, urban, rural, workers, professionals, artists, businesspeople, soldiers, the Mafia, scientists, students, and dropouts. Captured here are the changes that Russia experienced as it entered a stage of radical transformation in the early 1990s, as well as the frustration, apathy, and cynicism that a new generation still feels 10 years later. This new edition includes comments on the concerns of Russia's youth, the Internet, and Russia's adaptation to the free-market economy. This replaces 1550650610.
